Since the advent of nuclear power in the mid-1950s, considerable progress has been made. By the middle of 1999, there were 436 power generation reactors in operation in the world with a total installed capacity of 350,676 MW. There are 30 power generation reactors under construction with a total installed capacity of 21,642 MW.
At present, nuclear power plants generate electricity in 33 countries and regions in the world. Nuclear power generation accounts for 17% of the world's total. Of these, more than a dozen countries and regions have more than a quarter of nuclear power generation. Some countries have more than 70%. According to estimates, by 2005, the installed capacity of nuclear power plants will reach 388,567 megawatts.
China’s nuclear power generation accounts for 2.3% of China’s nuclear power. The largest proportion of nuclear power in the world is in France, and more than 70% of nuclear power is nuclear power. France has 53 nuclear power plants.
The biggest gap between nuclear power in China and developed countries is reflected in the research and development capabilities of nuclear power technology; whether China can be transformed from a nuclear power giant to a nuclear power country, the key is to see if it can master key core technologies.
Where is the gap between China's nuclear power and developed countries? How does China change from a nuclear power to a nuclear power? The reporter recently interviewed Zhang Huazhu, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and chairman of the China Nuclear Energy Industry Association, on these issues.
The scale of nuclear power is expected to rank the world's top three reporters: At present, China's nuclear power situation is very good. What are the future prospects?
Zhang Huazhu: Since 2005, China’s nuclear power policy has changed from “appropriate development†to “active developmentâ€, and the development of nuclear power has ushered in another spring. In particular, the State Council has adopted nuclear power development as a major measure to address climate change, and has included a vigorously cultivated strategic emerging industry, providing a strong policy guarantee for the long-term development of China’s nuclear power.
Judging from the current development trend, by 2020, the target of 40 million kilowatts of installed capacity will be achieved five years ahead of schedule. China's nuclear power development goals will be adjusted and it is expected to reach 70 million kilowatts by 2020. If this goal is achieved, China’s nuclear power is expected to rank among the top three globally in terms of scale.
The biggest gap lies in the R&D capability. Reporter: Compared with developed countries, where is China's nuclear power gap?
Zhang Huazhu: Nuclear power developed countries, including the United States, France, Russia, Japan, Canada, South Korea and so on. Compared with these countries, the biggest gap in China's nuclear power is still reflected in research and development capabilities. Whether it is the research and development of new nuclear power technologies, the development of nuclear power equipment, the research and development of nuclear fuel technology, or the post-processing technology of spent fuel, the operation and maintenance technology of nuclear power plants and the level of security services, there is still a considerable gap in our country.
The reason why these gaps exist is on the one hand because of the late start of China’s nuclear power and the insufficient accumulation of R&D. At the same time, it is also related to the lack of motivation for China’s nuclear power development and insufficient capital investment before 2005.
The nuclear power is not equal to the power of nuclear power reporter: How can China transform from a nuclear power to a nuclear power?
Zhang Huazhu: Indeed, nuclear power is not equal to a nuclear power. At the International Atomic Energy Agency's Ministerial Meeting on Nuclear Energy held in Beijing in April 2009, many speakers mentioned the development of new technologies for nuclear power. He always referred to the United States’ Westinghouse Company, General Electric Company (GE), and France’s Areva. , Russia's Rosatom Nuclear Energy Corporation, Japan's Mitsubishi, but there is no Chinese company. This is because these companies have their own core technologies and all have their own technical standards system.
Judging whether a country is a nuclear power or not depends on how big your nuclear power installation is, but whether you have mastered the key core technologies of nuclear power and whether it is a leader in a certain nuclear power technology.
At this point, the U.S. experience is worth learning. Since March 28, 1979, after the core melting accident occurred on the No. 2 reactor at the Sanchadao nuclear power plant, the United States has not put on new nuclear power projects for 30 years. However, they have not stopped technological research and development. Westinghouse sold nuclear power equipment manufacturing and other services, but only retained the core strength of nuclear power R&D. After more than 20 years of hard work, AP1000 was developed on the basis of AP600, and nuclear power technology was upgraded to the third generation; GE R&D Advanced boiling water reactor technology has long been applied in Japan.
At the same time, the United States has vigorously carried out technological transformations on the old nuclear power units in China, which has comprehensively improved the operation and management level of nuclear power plants, and has increased the load factor of nuclear power units from 70% in the mid to late 1980s to 90% in the late 1990s. The operating period of the power station was extended from 40 years to 60 years. The United States has therefore maintained its leading position in global nuclear power technology and has become a veritable nuclear power.
Focus on the superior forces, joint research reporter: How can we improve China's nuclear power R&D capabilities as soon as possible?
Zhang Huazhu: In recent years, the Chinese government has gradually increased its investment in R&D of nuclear power. The pace of R&D of nuclear energy companies and related universities and scientific research institutes has accelerated. The state initiated the implementation of major scientific and technological special projects for large-scale advanced pressurized water reactors and high-temperature gas-cooled reactor nuclear power plants. The National Nuclear Power Technology Corporation has increased its efforts to digest, absorb, and innovate in the process of introducing AP1000 self-supporting projects. China National Nuclear Corporation The company and China Guangdong Nuclear Power Group Corporation have also concentrated on human, material and financial resources to strengthen research and development of nuclear power technology. The modular high-temperature gas-cooled reactor developed by Tsinghua University is a demonstration project of the 200-MW high-temperature gas-cooled reactor nuclear power plant in Shandong Shidao Bay Nuclear Power Plant. Construction will begin officially in the near future.
Experience at home and abroad shows that nuclear power research and development cannot disperse forces and fight alone, let alone close the door behind closed doors to build a car, and must promote China's tradition of concentrating its efforts in handling major events, concentrating the country's superior forces, and jointly researching problems.
The world’s largest nuclear power plant is the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan, with a capacity of 9.096 million kilowatts.
At present, there are more than 450 nuclear reactors connected to the grid in the world. The total installed nuclear power capacity has reached more than 350 million kw, accounting for approximately 17% of the world's total. Although nuclear power plants are mainly distributed in industrialized countries so far, 31 of the 32 nuclear power plants currently under construction are located in Asia, Central and Eastern Europe. In addition, existing nuclear power plants have reduced power generation costs and increased safety by taking various measures. Among them, Argentina, Brazil, the Czech Republic, Germany, India, South Korea, Spain, Russia, Switzerland, Ukraine and the United States all increased their respective nuclear power generation and reached a record level.
Up to now, there are 11 nuclear power plants in China operating. There is also a lot of construction.

6. The nuclear power project in the nuclear power development plan of Hunan Province is expected to complete the “ice-breaking†journey. At present, the provincial government has entrusted Hunan Wuling Hydropower Development Co., Ltd. to work on the research and planning of the nuclear power project in the early stage, Huarong County of Yueyang City. Taoyuan County, Changde, is expected to become the planned nuclear power plant site. The proposed nuclear power project will have a planned installed capacity of 6 million kilowatts and a capacity of 2 million kilowatts in the first phase. At present, eight external topics such as hydrology and contract negotiations have been completed. It is expected that preliminary feasibility studies can be completed next year and project proposals submitted.
In 2005, under the leadership of Huaneng, the largest power company in China, a joint venture energy enterprise group has selected a 195 MW air-cooled nuclear power plant construction site in Weihai, Shandong, which will be the world’s first “commercially operational†ball. Bed "nuclear reactor.
At present, nuclear power plants generate electricity in 33 countries and regions in the world. Nuclear power generation accounts for 17% of the world's total.
